Adam Franklin delivering an AI keynote to a legal audience

Adam Franklin is an AI keynote speaker for lawyers and legal teams, based on the Sunshine Coast and speaking across Australia. Over 21 years he has delivered more than 250 keynotes and 100 workshops across professional services. His sessions are practical and confidentiality-aware, with privilege, accuracy and verification front of mind, tailored to legal work from drafting and research to client comms and knowledge, and the room leaves with prompt stacks they can use straight away.

Adam Franklin delivers practical AI keynotes for lawyers and legal teams, and works with law firms privately on putting AI to use. Confidentiality, privilege and client data sit at the centre of the session, alongside the lower-risk tasks where AI genuinely helps, from summarising documents to first-pass research, always with a lawyer reviewing the output.

Questions firms ask

Frequently asked questions

Why book Adam for a legal audience?

Because he does not oversell AI to lawyers. He is honest about its limits and failure modes and keeps confidentiality and privilege front and centre, which is what a legal room needs before it will trust it.

Is the content safe for confidentiality and privilege?

Yes, and it leads with that. Adam covers where AI helps a lawyer, where client confidentiality and legal professional privilege keep work off public tools, and how to choose tools and settings safely. Responsible use is the spine of the session, not a footnote.

How do you handle the risk of hallucinated cases?

Directly. Adam shows why AI can invent authorities and citations, how to spot it, and why a lawyer must verify every output before it is relied on or sent. The message is productivity with verification, never blind trust.

Can you tailor it to our practice areas?

Always. Adam researches your firm or conference, the practice areas in the room and the audience's AI experience, then tailors the examples, language and prompt stack so it lands for litigators, transactional lawyers or in-house counsel.

Do you run a hands-on workshop as well as the keynote?

Yes. A common format is a keynote followed by a half-day or full-day workshop for a smaller group, where lawyers actually set up and use the tools safely. The keynote plants the idea; the workshop does the installation.

How much does it cost to book Adam Franklin as an AI keynote speaker for law firms?

Adam's AI keynotes for law firms start from $10,000 +GST, and conference breakouts from $8,000 +GST. Hands-on workshops for legal teams are priced on format and length. Every event is quoted individually after a short call, so the fee reflects the audience, the format and the level of tailoring. The fastest way to a firm quote is the contact form or a brief call.

Where is Adam based, and does he travel for law firms events?
